1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm that harbors the Philadelphia chromosome. Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy has dramatically improved the survival of patients with CML. Nevertheless, 20%-40% of CML patients require changes in TKI therapy due to intolerance or drug resistance. A total of 30%-60% of resistant cases result from kinase domain (KD) mutations. There is currently no published data on CML KD mutations in South Africa. Methods: This retrospective, descriptive study collected data from 206 CML patients attending the King Edward Hospital Hematology clinic. Patient-based and mutation-based factors were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis and Kaplan-Meier curves for survival analysis. Results: KD mutations were detected in 29.1% ( Conclusion: The predicted response to TKI therapy was unknown in more than half of the KD mutations detected in our patient population. Additionally, eight patients with mutations with known responses to TKIs showed responses discordant to that expected. HIV status and KD mutations had no statistically significant effect on overall survival. Although some data were comparable to international publications, few notable differences warrant further investigation.
